Migration Procedure

The general migration procedure is:

  1. Perform the preparation steps in the next chapter.

  2. Install DirX Identity (upgrade installation). For details about installation see the chapter “Installing DirX Identity” in the DirX Identity Installation Guide.

  3. Configure DirX Identity (upgrade installation). Configure Connectivity Schema and data (on the machine were the connectivity database resides). Afterwards configure Provisioning Schema and data (on the machine were the provisioning database resides). Next, perform Initial Configuration for each existing ActiveMQ Message Broker. Afterwards run the Initial Configuration for the “primary” C server (the first installed one in a distributed Identity environment). If necessary, the JMS subscription migration is done during this step. For details about installation, see the chapter “Installing DirX Identity” in the DirX Identity Installation Guide.

    Configure DirX Identity (this includes the automatic migration procedures). Use the Initial Configuration wizard for this step and perform the initial configuration for all existing domains. For details see the chapter “Configuring DirX Identity” in the DirX Identity Installation Guide.

    Every “Domain Configuration” migrates the Request Workflow/Activity instances.

  4. Perform the manual migration steps in this manual.

  5. Test all of your applications and workflows thoroughly to be sure that everything works well.

  6. If you encounter any problems, read the "Known Problems" section in this manual.
